Update |
| 20 |
====== |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
The original GLSA only resolved one of the two vulnerabilities due to a |
| 23 |
regression. New packages are available that resolve both buffer |
| 24 |
overflows. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
The updated sections appear below. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
Synopsis |
| 29 |
======== |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
Samba contains two buffer overflow vulnerabilities potentially |
| 32 |
resulting in the execution of arbitrary code. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Affected packages |
| 35 |
================= |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 38 |
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected |
| 39 |
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 40 |
1 net-fs/samba < 3.0.27a >= 3.0.27a |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
Resolution |
| 43 |
========== |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
All Samba users should upgrade to the latest version: |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
# emerge --sync |
| 48 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-fs/samba-3.0.27a" |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
The first vulnerability (CVE-2007-5398) was already fixed in |
| 51 |
Samba 3.0.26a-r2. |
| 52 |
